pulling the rug

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/05/06/pulling-the- rug/

Spiritual path is, should be, a process of pulling the rug out of your feet. That’s how it should be. Just as you are feeling comfortable on one rug, pull that rug out and you collapse.

understanding the truth of depending arising

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/05/05/understanding- the-truth-of-depending- arising/

The bodhisattva who wishes to follow this path must invest time and energy to understand law and rule of, or the truth of depending arising. The dependent. Nothing is independent. That everything is dependently arising. A bodhisattva must pay attention, invest time and energy to understand that. And by the way this is the quintessential Mahayana path, aim of the Mahayana path, to understand the dependent arising. Wishing, longing, aspiring, working hard to understand the dependent arising is offering to the Buddha, it is the meditation, it is the generosity, it is the discipline, it is so called meditation, it is basically Mahayana path. Trying to understand dependent arising.

lesser and greater attitude

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/05/04/lesser-and- greater-attitude/

The lesser attitude people see that because self is a hallucination, therefore everything that is related to self is ridiculous. So why should we do things that are ridiculous. That’s what the lesser attitude people think. But the greater attitude people for them their attitude is: yes, self is a deception, it is a hallucination, therefore everything that is related to self is ridiculous. But let’s play with the ridiculousness. Let’s dwell in it, let’s use it, because – remember we talked about water and moisture cannot be separated – likewise ridiculousness and what is the opposite of ridiculousness, meaningful, is actually after all not separate. So rejecting something is ridiculous is a burden they think. And this, by the way, is a complicated way of expressing what compassion is.

 

You know we always talk about unconditional love. Knowing something is so ridiculous yet enjoying doing it, that’s quite close to being unconditional love. That’s what mothers do when they play with their babies. All kind of ridiculous stuff they do. And not only the babies, lovers, family members, we all do ridiculous stuff because we have unconditional love for our beloved ones.

within the realm of relative truth

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/05/03/within-the- realm-of-relative-truth/

For Buddhist, and specially Mahayana Buddhism, pain, release from the pain, path, all these exist within the realm of relative truth. Nothing else. If you are having a nightmare while sleeping on a nice bed, this is what Buddhist would say: Before you even slept, the nightmare did not exist. Of course not. That’s nothing unusual. But what the Buddhist are saying is: even as you are having the nightmare, while you are having the nightmare, actually it’s not happening. That’s a difficult to chew, this one. Because you will always: But I am being, you know, there is an earthquake, there is a monster about to eat me, all of that. But now there is another one that is even more difficult. Which is: after waking up from the nightmare to understand that the nightmare never existed, that’s even more difficult. Because that sense of relief from waking up from a nightmare is just so good. So how can you say that there was nothing. But anyway if you are to study and follow the Mahayana path, this is the view that you have to be brave enough to accept.

a moral problem

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/05/02/a-moral- problem/

If you lose that magic of non-duality of wisdom and method, the truth and non-truth, illusion and reality, the inseparability of illusion and reality, if you lose that, mere practice of doing the right thing will just become a burden. It actually becomes a big problem. A moral problem. It becomes really – when the morality becomes the cause of a problem it becomes such a biggest problem. I mean, can’t you see, almost eighty percent of the world’s problems is a religious problem. This is the right thing to do. This is the only way to do.

the biggest tragedy

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/04/30/the-biggest- tragedy/

From the Buddhist point of view, there is really a big tragic that is happening all the time. The fact that all beings, like you and me, and specially those who are walking outside here, you know, sentient beings, even so they are adorned with buddha-nature – wherever they go, buddha-nature goes – they just miss it all the time. That is the biggest tragedy. It is so near, it is just so closed, it is right here in front, even closer than in front of you. But most of us, we miss it. That is the biggest tragedy.

seeing only this side

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/04/29/seeing-only- this-side/

There is a Tibetan word called tshur thong wa. Tshur thong wa means one that sees this side. One that sees only this side. That’s the term, only. One that sees only this side. So by getting accustomed to things like precious human body and impermanence, what it does is, it suddenly begins to not only see this side, but then you begin to see other side. And that’s beginning to – your vision, your view, when it is no more limited to only this side, this life, then you have a renunciation mind. So that’s why you will see people with the begging bowl and very ascetic looking and very renounced looking but they are only looking at this side, still. So they are not necessarily renounced person.

samsara and nirvana – magic

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/04/29/samsara-and- nirvana-magic/

Samsara and the nirvana – magic. It is a magic. Very samsara is the very nirvana. You cannot get rid of samsara and try to find the nirvana. You cannot get rid of water and try to find moisture.

not a practice of asceticism

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/04/29/not-a-practice- of-asceticism/

Contrary to many people’s believe renunciation is not a practice of asceticism, like penance. It is not a practice of penance.

homage to the guru

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/04/28/homage-to-the- guru/

Before we begin, homage to the guru. And when we say homage we are not just talking about bowing down but basically some sense of surrender. It is not mere respect but it’s a total surrender. We do this surrender because we are aware of the downfall of ego-clinging. So therefore, total surrender to the guru.

the supreme most method

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/04/28/the-supreme- most-method/

The concept of the guru is very complicated. Guru always gets misunderstood as master. I don’t know whether master is guru. We don’t know yet. I don’t think so. Most probably not. Because– I don’t know – sometimes the master seems to have a connotation of learned one. So it comes within the context of education, accomplished being, from the more education point of view. Guru is not necessarily like that. As I said guru is a very complex – but I think this might help. Guru is not limited as the master but guru is the path also. Guru is everything. Guru is the breath. The color of this grape. The spaciousness of this room. But again, as I speak like this, there is a danger to categorize guru as “e v e r y t h i n g” which is like very abstract. So in this way guru is also personalized. So anyway, in the Mahayana, and specially in the Vajrayana tradition guru is probably the most important method. You know we were talking about the wisdom and the method. Method. Probably the supreme most method.

the root of the suffering in our life

 

 

http://justdzongsar.wordpress. com/2013/05/07/the-root-of- the-suffering-in-our-life/

 

Root of the suffering in our life is –to put it very simply – the root of the cause of the problem and the suffering that we have is looking at something completely not true and mistaking it as true and thinking it is true and clinging to that. Because even in our common sense you can tell when you begin to think something not true as true you have already asked for trouble. Sooner or later you are going to get disappointed. But this is easier said than done. And the reason is we have build strong habit to think something fake as truth. Meditation, Kuantan 2012 (podcast 19)
